woke me up as it put on its light show overhead. Then it hit the radio
station across the street. That was spectacular. And deafening. It was a
couple of days before they were back on the air.
Are thunderstorms uncommon at night? Seems around here they are as common
during the night as during the day.
A fact that stays in mind for no good reason, after reading a classic
atmospheric electricity monograph:
There is a peak time which is synchronized around the world, for
lightning strikes.
I suppose that depending on the longitude, the time for
lightning shows could well be at night....
